This cute 2 bedroom, 1 bath ranch in the village of Spring Lake would be perfect for 1st time buyers, so if you're tired of paying rent and want a home in a quiet neighborhood, this is it. There's appliances in the kitchen that stay, a gas log fireplace in the living room, central air, the roof shingles were replaced in 2010, and an updated electrical service with breakers was just installed. Other features include a 2 stall attached garage, fenced back yard, screened sitting porch and the street is a dead end, so traffic is at a minimum. The home does need a little updating with some paint and flooring, but it's very livable and you can move right in so don't wait. Holmes Elementary and The Spring Lake Middle School are only a block away.

Single-Family Residential District
The intent of this district is to provide for a sound and stable environment for relatively low-density single-family dwellings and other compatible, related uses. Uses and requirements for this district should foster improvement of the living environment for the residents of the Village and ensure quality development. Neighborhoods should be quiet and free of unrelated traffic, although limited, low-impact residentially related land uses may be permitted as described below. Residential streets should be scaled for compatibility between pedestrians and automobiles.
